Little Caitlyn Doucette “plays” in her first pile of leaves. She is the daughter of Melissa Cook and Christopher Doucette of Avon. In September, Caitlyn became the 1,00th baby to receive the Harold Alfond College Challenge $500 grant. The late Harold Alfond established the program to ensure access to higher education of all Maine’s children. There is no income limit or need for families to contribute their own money to receive the grant. Babie’s families must open a NextGen® account before the baby’s first birthday to receive the Alfond Grant. For more information call 800-228-3734 or visit www.500forbaby.org. (Melissa Cook photo)
